It is not uncommon to see teenagers smoking today. Some of them smoke because of peer pressure. When they see some of their friends smoking, they feel the pressure to try it out in order to “fit in” with the crowd. Some other teenagers smoke because they want to imitate adults or appear to be mature. Teenagers like to imitate their favorite stars and adults around them. So, parents who smoke may set a bad example for their children. In conclusion, the causes of teenager smoking can be attributed to peer pressure and their intention to look like adults.

China’s space industry was launched in 1956. Over the past decades, China’s space industry has created one miracle after another. In 1970 China launched its first man-made earth satellite, ranking China the fifth country in the world to independently develop and launch man-made earth satellites. In 1992 China began to carry out the manned spaceflight program. In 2003 China launched Shenzhou-5, a manned spaceship. The successful launch made China the third country to launch manned spaceships. In 2007 Chang’e-1,, the first lunar-orbiting man-made satellite, was sent to space. In 2013 Shenzhou-10, the fifth manned spaceship was launched successfully, laying the foundation for building the Chinese Space Station.

Critical thinking 3.
1 Teenagers and college students are more likely to become Internet addicts. Many teenagers lack self-discipline. Though their parents may watch them closely at home and only allow them very limited time to get online, once being away from home, these kids are likely to indulge themselves in the Internet. The same is true for college students. College students often use the Internet to help with their study, and they lack supervision from their parents if they live on campus. If they do not watch their time online and what they do with the internet, they may also become addicted to the Internet.
2 .Yes, I think so. A weak personality usually can’t resist temptation. Jack, my former classmate, definitely falls into this category. He knew for sure that online games would take up too much of his study time. However, he just couldn’t stop thinking about the games and completely indulged himself in this virtual world.
. No, I don’t think so. A person with a strong personality may also become an addict. One of my friends had a very strong personality. He was independent and decisive, and he was always the

leader among his friends. But somehow he became an Internet addict. So I think addiction to the Internet has nothing to do with ones personality.
3 If I have friends who unfortunately become Internet-addicted, I will help them: 1)set time limits. I will suggest that they should allow themselves a limited amount of time to spend online each day; 2)keep themselves busy. I will help them find activities to keep their mind of the Internet, e.g. meeting friends, taking up new hobbies, doing sports.
4 . “No Computer Day” is a good idea. If you shut down your computer for a day, you’ll possibly find a book to read, go out with friends, talk with your family, visit a museum, play basketball, or go to a concert. A day without the computer is a reminder that there are more rewarding things to do.
. I don’t think it is a good idea. For people who depend on their computers for their work or study, they could do little or almost nothing without computers. Moreover, the business world may become out of order without computers, even for only one day.

Who Wesley Austrey, 50 years old, a construction worker What Wesley Austrey saved Cameron Hollopeter.
How Hollopeter fell to the tracks between the two rails when a train came. Wesley jumped onto the tracks, lay on top of Hollopeter and pressed him down. 3
1 .Yes, I think Wesley Austrey is a real hero because he showed unusual courage in times of danger. Few people would jump onto the tracks to save a stranger from a racing train.
. No, I don’t think Wesley Austrey is a hero. He was behaving irresponsibly. He should have realized that he had two little children to take care of. What would his kids do if he died?!
